Property Disputes

Property Disputes

It can be said that a disagreement becomes a dispute when parties cannot agree on their differences.

Even when a valid contract exists between parties, a difference in opinion regarding the interpretation of the contract can also lead to a dispute.

When you are involved in a dispute, a consultation with our Litigation Department will help you to assess whether litigation is the best option for you.

If you approach us in the early stages of a disagreement, we aim to resolve the disagreement swiftly to avoid a dispute. In view of the costs involved in property litigation, we investigate the possibility of using other mechanisms to resolve the dispute, such as negotiation, arbitration and mediation, but if formal litigation remains the best option, we aim to conduct your case in a cost-effective way

In cases where the property dispute relates to fixed property, our Litigation Department aims to find the most cost effective and speedy resolution to these disputes by working in conjunction with our Conveyancing (Property) Department to identify and ascertain the extent of the infringement on your rights and estimate the damage or restitution to which you are entitled.

We have in the past assisted our clients in claiming what is rightfully theirs in Contractual disputes, landlord and tenant disputes, sale and purchase disputes and various other disputes.
